gravelpacking

A rugged and slightly masochistic variant of bikepacking, where cyclists trade in the smooth hum of road bikes for the bone-rattling experience of gravel bikes. This activity involves braving the wilderness on unpolished fire roads and off-road trails, often with more grit in their teeth than on the path. Gravelpacking is to bikepacking what off-roading is to a Sunday drive – more bumps, more bruises, and a lot more "Are we really supposed to ride through that?" moments. The perfect cocktail of adventure, endurance, and a questionable disregard for one's own comfort.
After three days of gravelpacking, Jake returned looking like he'd wrestled a dust storm... and lost, but with the kind of wild grin only a gravelpacker understands.

Graveback (noun)
Pronunciation: /ˈɡreɪvˌbæk/

Definition:
A powerful resurgence or revival of something once thought dead, defunct, or forgotten — returning stronger, more vibrant, or more successful than before.

Usage:
“After years of ridicule, the game made a full graveback and became a cult classic.”
“Vinyl records pulled a graveback nobody saw coming.”

Etymology:
Coined by Drëngr (2025) from the fusion of grave (symbolizing death or obsolescence) and comeback. The term evokes imagery of rebirth through decay — a return from the figurative grave not as a ghost of what was, but as a force reborn through resilience.

Synonyms: resurrection, revival, comeback, reemergence.
Antonyms: demise, downfall, extinction.
“After years of ridicule, the game made a full graveback and became a cult classic.”

Vinyl records pulled a graveback nobody saw coming.”.

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!

cornholio 

Ruler of Lake Titicaca. Rumored to have a bunghole that gets very angry if it does not receive toilet paper. Cornholio the Great is often seen walking around with his shirt over his head and his hands in the air, chanting songs about his power, and his bunghole.
"I am Cornholio! You do not want to face the wrath of my bunghole, for I need TP!"
Butthead: Shut up, Beavis! (uh huh huh huh)
Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).
